Windows 10: Contradicting disk size

I open explorer/properties I see one size, and when I use Disk management I see another size.

Why?

I have run into a similar problem in the past with a drive in an external enclosure.

Starting to wonder if Windows 10 is having problems with USB 2.0 enclosures?

BTW Please ignore disk labeling. I am using Windows 10.

Storage size contradiction

Hi ,

when i checked for storage using
Phone storage and storage check from setting in my lumia 520, they show other section with different size.
Phone storage shows- 1.5gb
storage check shows- 504mb
how they contradict?..and why?..

Regards,
Sri.

 

Disk management console view is not up-to-date

i dont know how to fix your disk management, but i can fix your partition problems...




open up Command Prompt with admin rights. (Right click, run as admin)


enter in
DISKPART
list disk

then find the Disk number for your Raid array... lets call it number 7 ( you can tell what disk is what by the total size)
type in

Select Disk 7
List Partition (will give you a list of all the partitions..)
Select Partition 1 (im assuming you only have 1 partition on Disk 7) repeat this step if you have more partitions.
ASSIGN


that should get the array up and running ready to use.


EDITED.

any problems, post back ^^
